Official Nicho Hynes

[Proud Shark]

Can someone please explain to me why we continuously kick from the short side?

Especially ridiculous on the wrong side for Nicho.

Can Atkinson kick? Hasn’t even had a chance

Originally it was to kick into the sun, and now it’s because they’re keeping keeping duties away from Atkinson.

This whole year Hynes has loved kicking on the short side .. it must be a preference thing

It's weird. Also, his decision making with kicks has been pretty average so far, hope it improves second half.

 

[Milkshark]

Hynes is so wasted at 7.

Just imagine this guy without the half back duties and what he would could bring to the game, and his own game.

Wrong thread lol

Can't be getting caught on 4th this much against a good side.

 

[sharkstragic]

He’s doing it by himself but it does show a problem

A cornerback? Is that what it says?

 

[Blue_Eyes84]

I noticed he did it a lot late in the game when we had it won. Wouldn’t surprise me if he did it to give Atkinson some experience on last play options while under pressure.

Rather give Dan some pressure moments when we’re up 40-0 as opposed to 18-18 down in Melbroune.

I thought he did it across the game tbh.

Best game of the year for him. Near perfect performance

 

[Shortfin Mako]

The team started to find its rhythm and so has Hynes. He is becoming a true leader.

So they receive it on a short side & our kick-chase knows exactly where they're going. Nicho kicking down the opposite short side though is no bueno.

We’ve been doing it since last year, I believe it’s a tactical decision by Fitzy.

A punt to the corner makes it significantly easier for us to set our defensive line, plus it means the first two tackles for the opposition are going to be sideways plays to get the ruck to the centre of the field.

Just stop and think, how many times have we see the opposition winger only make a meter or two because they need to crab across on their hit-up to get the ball centred field?

I guess if we are trying to pin to corner (which we absolutely are) kicking from shortside allows a straight kick, rather than crossfield with more risk of going long (out). Altering kick position to go higher accuracy kick.

Doesn't help when you kick on your offside low into someone's legs though.
